"You should know how to be grateful, you know, not everyone can be treated like this......"
"Mother!" Before the Duchess finished speaking, the girl called out again, and this time, before the words fell, she had already rushed towards the Duchess.
"You you you, what are you doing~?!" At this moment, facing the girl who was throwing her head into her arms and rubbing her head against her chest, the Duchess gave a loud warning while struggling hard. The whole person looked a little panicked.
God is pitiful, the Duchess has been strictly raised according to the standards of a noble lady since she was a child, even with her relatives, friends, and even children, she will keep a "standard distance", and she has never experienced such an intimate behavior of a girl.
"Mother..." Seemingly sensing the duchess' resistance, the girl raised her head from the duchess' arms, and then looked at each other pitifully,
"I have been said to be a child without a mother since I was a child. Today I finally have a mother. Can you let me hug you for a while?"
"Please, just a moment~"
At this moment, facing the girl's "poor" eyes, the struggling Duchess suddenly felt a little unbearable. After hesitating for a moment, she finally stopped pushing the girl away.
"Only, only this time is allowed, and this will never be allowed again in the future."
"You are a girl, you must know what reserve is."
"Okay, mother." After getting the Duchess's permission, the girl no longer had any scruples, and then stuck her head back into the Duchess's chest, feeling the softness on her face, and the girl couldn't help but narrow her eyes comfortably .
On the other side, regarding the girl's actions, the Duchess moved her body a little uncomfortably. After a moment of silence, she hesitated and put her palm on the girl's head and touched it. The girl warned,
"Katerina, let me tell you something serious. Although I am very grateful for your maintenance, your actions today are really reckless."
Speaking of this, looking at the girl who raised her head again, the Duchess continued to speak uprightly,
"The ladies who talked to you during the day are all the mistresses of the great aristocratic families in the kingdom. If the words you said to them are heard by someone with a heart, your future will be ruined."
"You know, no good man would be willing to marry a... a wife with extreme thinking."
"What's more troublesome is that you seem to have caught the attention of Princess Hill, yes, that lady in the red dress. She is His Majesty's third wife and the mother of the third prince."
"Don't think that Princess Hill is as gentle as I am. She has a vicious and cruel personality. Many people who have offended her will end badly in the end. Getting in touch with her will not do you any good."
"But..." Hearing the Duchess' warning, the girl blinked her eyes. In order not to scare the other party, she did not explain her real purpose, but responded with a light smile,
"If I don't stand up, won't my mother let them bully me?"
"You're just a child!" Facing the girl's "rebuttal", the Duchess couldn't help but choke her breath, then put on a strict mother's posture, and continued to warn in a very stern tone,
"I'm an adult, adults will take care of their own affairs, and children should take care of themselves!"
At this moment, feeling the concern behind the Duchess' words, the girl exhaled softly, then asked with a smile,
"Could it be... won't the adults get hurt?"
At this moment, the girl's question made the duchess stunned, she didn't know how to answer this question, and the girl didn't intend to wait for the duchess' answer,
"Don't worry, mother~"
Looking at the dumbfounded Duchess, the girl gently held the other's palm, and then said firmly,
"Over the past 13 years, I've been through the harshest and the darkest things I've seen, and I'm far less vulnerable than you might think."
"Through getting along these days, I already understand that you are a very gentle person. It is the greatest luck in my life to have a mother like you."
"I know you want to defend me like a mother, and for that I'm very grateful."
"But I hope you can understand that for me, the so-called family members should support and rely on each other in the face of difficulties, rather than unilaterally accepting asylum."
"so.........."
At this point, the girl held the Duchess's hand to her heart, then stared deeply at the Duchess, smiled and said,
"Please learn to accept your daughter's protection from time to time~"
At this moment, looking at the girl smiling brightly in front of her, the Duchess seemed to see light in the girl's eyes in a daze. This light was so bright that it could easily penetrate into the depths of her heart and finally turned into fire. The apex of her heart was sore from burning.
..................................................
A few months later, in the main study room of the Duke's Mansion, Duke Aldan was holding a thick book and reading it very carefully.
What is puzzling is that the cover of the book in the hands of Duke Aldan has a very obvious feminine logo, and it can be seen at a glance that it is a romantic novel used by noble women to pass the time.
Logically speaking, such a book should not have appeared in the hands of the Duke, but now, the Duke is holding this book and reading it with relish.
The reason for this situation is actually very simple...... This book is written by a girl!
The title of this book is "Qiang Qiang Rose", but in the market, it has another name - "The Duchess's Love, Hate, and Hate".
The content of this book is mainly about an excellent woman who married a scumbag duke. After going through a series of painful tortures, such as her husband's cold violence, cheating, multiple mistresses came to the house, and the illegitimate daughter was taken home. Finally, she finally transforms and awakens, rises up against the cruel fate, defeats the Duke, and leads her children towards a happy and beautiful life.
The whole book can be summed up with only one core content, that is, the lady is a flower and the duke is a scum!
That's right, the girl who wrote this book was actually intended to blackmail the Duke of Aldan. After knowing the harm that gossip has done to the Duchess, the girl who knows the power of public opinion is terrible, and intends to guide the violence of public opinion in the right direction. And so this book was born.
In the book, the scumbag Duke's fate was very miserable. Not only was his power completely emptied, he was treated indifferently by his children, and in the end he was tortured to death by his wife.
At present, Duke Aldan is just watching this passage......
[………… In the dark and gloomy attic, the Duke, who was once so beautiful, is now lying alone in the damp bedding. The air is filled with a sour and decaying smell. From planks that were already moldy, and from the duke himself. 】
[In this corner that was forgotten by everyone, the Duke was lingering on his last breath. His cloudy eyes were staring at the ceiling blankly, like a person who was about to die, and there was no light in his eyes. 】
[At this moment, there was a regular sound of footsteps outside the door. Hearing this sound, the Duke, who was like a dead man, finally moved. The light of fear and timidity flashed in his eyes alternately. 】
[In the end, when the figure of the visitor appeared at the door of the room, only fear remained in the Duke's eyes. 】
[At this moment, looking at the people who kept approaching him, the Duke tried his best to babble, as if he wanted to say something, but his already dilapidated body did not allow him to utter a complete sentence words. 】
[Finally, after a few breaths, the uninvited guest approached the Duke, and looking at the radiant and beautiful woman in front of him, a morbid fascination suddenly flashed in the Duke's eyes. The person in front of him was his enemy and also his wife. 】
【All kinds of things happened in a long time, so that the Duke has forgotten how he and his wife got to this point, but what kept him from forgetting was the scene when he first saw his wife. 】
[The duke still remembers that his wife at that time was bright and lively, like an elegant scorpion flower, and the way his wife looked at him was also full of tenderness and emotion. 】
【'How did we get to this point? 'The Duke looked at his wife and asked himself again. 】
[Unfortunately, there will never be an answer to this doubt, because a gentle greeting, like the footsteps of death, faintly resounded in the ear of the Duke...... 】
【"Honey, it's time to take medicine~~"】
ps: Completion completed
Chapter 46 44. The surging undercurrent
"Hu~~"
At this moment, after reading the chapter about the final fate of the "Duke", the Duke of Aldan, who is the prototype of the character, slowly put down the book in his hand, and then took a deep breath.
At this moment, no matter how good Duke Aldan's energy-raising skills are, he can't help but feel a little annoyed. I believe that no matter who it is, seeing the character who uses himself as a model, being set into such an ending in the novel, the mood It's not easy to know where to go, if it's someone with a bad temper, now it's time to think about hanging up the perpetrator and punishing him severely.
However, Duke Aldan is not an ordinary person after all. After sighing in one breath, he quickly suppressed the anger in his heart, and after a helpless smile, he opened the book again, and then read the book again. The first page of the book looks like it's going to be re-read from cover to cover.
Don’t get me wrong, the Duke of Aldan is not a masochist, he has no habit of masochism. The reason why he wants to slander his book in its entirety and read it again is because this book really makes him read it carefully. He is really reluctant to let go of the capital.
After all, in such an era when people who are proficient in using words are rare, it is a test of luck and character to encounter a book that can be read carefully.
Unlike ordinary women's books, this book "Qiang Qiang Rose" written by a young girl has not only been sought after by a large number of female nobles, but also many male nobles are full of praise for this book.
This is a very incredible phenomenon. You must know that women's books that tell romantic stories have always been regarded as pastimes for noble women among the nobles. If male nobles also read such books, they will be laughed at by others.
However, this rule is completely ineffective in front of the "Qiang Qiang Rose" written by the girl.
The reason is very simple. This female book written by a young girl is actually just a layer of romantic skin. In essence, it is a large-scale collective work that integrates various knowledge such as history, military affairs, politics, and economics. , an excellent book that is very rare in the current era!
In addition, the knowledge contained in the book is still carried in a very easy-to-understand novel style, and readers have an excellent reading experience, so naturally people can't put it down.It's like the Duke at the moment, knowing that the content of this book is slandering him, but he is still really fragrant in the end.
I don't know how long it took, the Duke finished flipping through the book again. This time, he read carefully the passages he had marked before, and then, as if he was feeling something, he gently closed the book in his hand Finally, the Duke stared at the bloody rose on the cover of the book, unable to speak for a long time.
At this moment, the Duke is thinking silently, he is thinking about why his eldest daughter can write such a book.
For readers like the duke who have a wealth of knowledge and whose three views have already solidified, the process of reading is not only a process of absorbing knowledge, but also an examination of the author's thoughts.
After all, an excellent book will never be formed out of thin air. The author needs imagination to write a book, and the author's imagination must be based on the author's own perception of the world. Those things that are completely imagined out of thin air have no logic at all. It's hard to fool people.
Just like some western countries in girls' previous lives, most of the relevant remarks they slandered their opponents were things they did themselves, so it would appear particularly true to others.
So now comes the problem, the book written by the girl obviously contains many things beyond the cognition range of the girl at her age.
For example, a certain narration in the book "War is nothing but the continuation of politics through another means", and a certain dialogue mentioned "Peace must be sought with a compromise mentality, and peace must perish. If you seek peace, then peace will last forever." These words with profound insights into politics and military affairs are obviously beyond the imagination of a 13-year-old girl.
Although Duke Aldan deliberately ignored the girl for 13 years, the Duke knows most of what the girl has experienced in the past 13 years. It is precisely because of this that the Duke really finds it hard to believe that the girl is actually the author of this book.
However, the reality is that the author of this book is a young girl, and every word in the book was written by the young girl under the eyes of Duke Aldan, without any guidance from outsiders.
In this regard, Duke Aldan felt that something was very wrong. He had the faint feeling that something was getting out of his control, which was not a good feeling.
"Boom~boom~boom~"
At this moment, when Duke Aldan was deep in thought, someone knocked on the door of the study room, and then, before he allowed his permission, the door was knocked open, and then, seeing the figure carelessly walking into the study room, the Duke couldn't help but feel a headache pinched his temples.
As the head of the Aldan family, Duke Aldan has always been a very dignified existence. In the past, no one would have the courage to do such a rude thing in front of him.
But now, there are some people who are so bold and never change after repeated admonitions.
"Hey, old man, I heard that you want to see me, what's the matter?"
The person who dared to talk to the duke like this was naturally a girl. Besides, there would be no other person in the whole duke's mansion.
Facing his eldest daughter, the Duke took a deep breath, pointed to the books on the table, and said calmly,
"Katerina, I think, is there something you need to explain to me?"
"Explain what?"
Hearing the Duke's words, the girl casually glanced at the books in front of the Duke, raised her eyebrows slightly, then shrugged her shoulders and responded,
"There's nothing to explain, but it's just a romance novel."
"Why, old man, don't tell me you are also interested in romance novels like those noble ladies~?"
Facing the girl's statement, the Duke calmly clicked on the cover of the book, then sighed faintly,
"Do you hate me that much~?"
"How is it possible!" The girl answered decisively to the duke's question,
"Hate is a heavy and expensive emotion. I don't want to waste my precious life on such insignificant things."
"At least for you, it's not worth it!"
